Guidance for implementors:
This method doesn't wait for all calls on this channel to finish (nor does
it have to explicitly cancel all outstanding calls). It is user's responsibility to make sure
all the calls on this channel have finished (successfully or with an error)
before shutting down the channel to ensure channel shutdown won't impact
the outcome of those remote calls.
ShutdownAsyncCore()
protected virtual Task ShutdownAsyncCore()
Provides implementation of a non-virtual public member.
